SHARP'S TRIAL.
The Jury Not Yet COmpIeted-TWO
Vacancies TO be FILLED.
lBy telegraph TO the Dispat,


NEW YORK, June 10.-When the Court
OF oyer and Terminer opened this morning
for the resumption Of the Sharp trial Judge
Barrett stated that he would not render a
decision in the case Of young Wander bIii,
examined before him yesterday on the
charge of embracery, until Monday ueXt
The work OF the court commenced WITH
tbirty.tWo names Of the sixteenth panel in
the wheel, and the seventeenth panel in a.
tendance TO be called. In answer TO a
question, Judge Nelson, Of the defence,
said that there is little probability that tie
Jury will be completed and sworn In I'll
Monday. He stated that there j. q genera
disposition to delay the completion OF the
iury until Monday, the witnesses for th,
people having been excused until That
time.
Having exhausted their challenges the
defence was particularly pertnaciOus In in-
slsiing on exceptions 10 the rulings OF the
Count regarding questions a> to the con-
sineraiiom Of the testimony OF informers.
Tie reason for this Is that the Court Of APP
peaIs has held that an exception ayalls no.
thing if the defence has unused challenges,
but should a Juror be forced upon them by
unjust rulings after peremptory challenges
are exhausted, a good case on appeal is Ob.
tanned. This Will throw light on the de.
fences action IN availng itself Of
al its challenges. Rudolph Wolf, manu-
iacturer Of bags and boxes, at ~ Walker
street, was accepted "a a Juror by both sides,
and took the vacant seat. This filled the
box. This jury, however, will not be
sworn, for District Attorney MARITIME an.
nounced that it is the purpose OF the prose-
culion to chall,nge the Que now sitting AZ
ter recess. Recess.
After recess Mr.. MARITIME challenged
Juror White, and the Court excused Juror
Davidson. THIS makes two vacancies.

1unc Returns of the Agricultural
Department..
IBy telegraph to the Dispatcb.I

WASHINGTON, June 10.-.The June returns
% The Department OF Agriculture indicate
n reduction OF nearly per cent. in the area
oi winter wheat. The total area OF whe It
Is about $1,000, 600 acres, fraction OF per
cent. more than that OF last year. In some
districts there are indications that the yield
OF grain will be larger proporti0natrly
than Of straw. II there is no increase from
this cause the yield must be less than the
average. The harvest Is already in
progress up to the thIrty-eighth de-
gree Of north latitude. The condi-
ton Of spring wheat ia good in Dr.
kota and the Territories westward. but be-
low the average records in Wisconsin,
Mime sofa, Iowa, and Nebraska. The gene
raj average for spring wheat is S1.3. which
is lower than In recent years, but thirteen
points higher than in 1881. At harvesting
last year the condition averaged 80 per
cent. The dry weather 10 April has been
injurious TO winter wheat. Insects have
committed greater depredatlonS tn an usual.
The central belt westward from Penn
sylyania and Virginia has suffered
local damage from the Hcssian fly
and cbiDch- bug, but wrought injury IN
Illinois, Missouri. and Kansas. The area
OF winter rye has been diminished over
per cent, mainly by large reduction in
Kansas. The condition Is better than that
Of wheat, as the usual average Is $3.50. An
apparent enlargement OF barley acreage OF 3
per cent is indicated. The Increase is In
DakOts, California. Oregon, and tho Terri
tories. The condition averages 81, being
slightly above that OF wheat. There Is con-
tinusnCe OF the extension OF Oat culture: the
increase IL per cent. This crop has taken
part OF the area formerly IN wheat In Kan
sas, an advance OF 80 per cent. over the
acreage OF last year. The increase is large
in The Northwest. and there is tendency
10 enlargement in all sections OF the cOun-
try. In acreage Of cotton an increase OF l
per cent. is reported.
There appears to be slight decline In
the states Of the Atlantic coast and an in
crease west OF the Mississippi. The State
averages are: Virginia, 90; North Caro-
lima. 99j South Carolina, 9S; Ge0rgis,
% ;; Florida, 81; Alabama. 100; MissiS.
sipi, 1904; Louisiana, 1O2; Texas, 106;
Arkansas, 1925; Tennessee, 100.
The condition OF cattle is higher than in
any June since 1880, averaging 0G.9, and
has only been exceeded three times since
1870. The beat yield in that period, how.
ever. was in 1882, when the June cOndi-
ton Wa 50, a ngure that has been dis
counted six times since 1870. II is good
